Also, I know this came out late. I was at the shore and didn't have time to update earlier. Better late than never though! I was going to update it tomorrow, but I decided that I wouldn't be that mean. Enjoy!

Harry looked at all the Oracion Seis members going from right to left since he didn't study them all that good last time. The first was Racer. He has a Mohawk that is yellow or blond in color, with darker hair on the side of his head. His eyebrows are crazy enough to remind Harry of some kind of bird crest.
The second one in the group is Cobra, and with him his snake familiar. Cobra has red-ish hair and has a cat-like face and grin. His snake has purple scales and a white underbelly. The snake is huge, but not as big as the basilisk is his memories.
The third member is the leader himself, Brain. His hair is white, his skin dark, and he has what appears to be tattoos all over his skin. They are like lines from a computer motherboard. He also holds a staff with a tribal human skull on it that holds a crystal ball within its mouth.
The fourth of the six is Angel. Everything about her is white; her hair, her feather-like clothing, and even her shoes. Next to her are two small cute creatures that are light blue in color. He has no idea what they are, but if Fawkes is right about her powers then they are probably Celestial Spirits.
Next to Angel is Midnight, who has his black-haired covered head bowed down and Harry is sure he sees a little white in it. His skin is pale, and he is sitting on a flying, magic carpet. Harry wondered why his head was bowed, so he focused on his more closely. He was able to get a glance of his closed eyes when a slight breeze moved his hair out of his face.
{Is he asleep?} Harry questioned.
{Yes he is…} Fawkes confirmed, just as surprised as his wizard. {Is he just cocky, or did he decided to just take a nap and these guys just dragged him here?}
Harry didn't know the answer, but he won't complain about one of the Oracion Seis sleeping on the job. He decided to look at the last person behind Midnight. He is the biggest in the group. He has burnt orange hair and a block-like face. Harry was reminded of Wally from the Tower of Heaven. He also holds a book with the letter J on it. Is that a money book and the J stands for Jewels?
Since Harry was studying them, he didn't notice them talking. What he did catch was Natsu and Gray charging forward as well as Racer. The fight just started.
Harry snaps his head around to Wendy and says, "Get behind that boulder over there. I'll stay here unless one of them needs help."
Wendy nodded her head and hid right where Harry told her too. Harry watch as his friends and allies started to get their butts handed to them on a golden platter. Lucy got whipped by the twin spirits, Gray got frozen by them too, and Natsu tried to attack Midnight, but all his flames just moved around him and Racer stops him from waking the sleeping mage claiming that it would be scary were he to wake up.
Erza is fighting Cobra and Harry sees that she isn't doing to good either. He pulls out his wand, getting ready to attack. The twin spirits saw him and turned into him. Harry quickly jumped out of the way from them, and cast, "Bombarda!"
Before allowing the dust to clear, Harry used it to wrap his cloak around him, turning him invisible.
The twin spirits knew how he hid, but couldn't do the same thing for they don't have the invisibility cloak. They turned back to being themselves, giving Harry an opening. "Incendio." The two spirits caught on fire, and they screamed. They vanished shortly after.
Harry checked on his friends again, spotting Cobra's snake attacking Erza. It was far too close for the fairy queen to dodge.
~Stop!~ Harry hissed at the snake in a panic, but even though Cubellios was shocked to hear someone shout out in her language she didn't stop from sinking her fangs into Erza's arm. "Erza!" Harry called out fearfully.
He was about to tell Fawkes to heal their teammate while he took on Cobra, but a voice stopped him. "I wouldn't do that if I were you." Harry noticed that it was Cobra's voice. "Nothing can stop Cubellios' poison. You would be wasting yours and your bird's time."
Harry gritted his teeth. "You sure about that?" he questioned, still planning on trying it. Cobra shook his head.
"What I want to know is how you spoke to Cubellios."
"What are you talking about?" Harry asked, trying to play dumb. He was hoping that no one heard him hiss.
"I can hear everything, so don't even try and play innocent," Cobra said with a grin.
'How did he…?' Harry mentally freaked out.
"You're thoughts are loud. Now answer, how did you speak to Cubellios?"
Harry realized he wasn't going to get out of this. With a sigh, he said, "It was a language I was born with." It was somewhat of a lie, but not entirely.
"Not a full lie? So you weren't born with it? What, did you grow up with snakes or something?"
~If this small one did grow up with snakes, then he would smell of snake, but there is not a trace of the scent on him,~ Cubellios said.
~You would be right on that. I was not raised by snakes," Harry started in Parseltongue, but ended in English. "I was given the gift by someone trying to kill me when I was really small. He was able to speak it."
"I see…" Cobra said. "Do these hisses sound like English to you? I have noticed that when you and Cubellios spoke, your thoughts translated the sound to a language I understand."
{Just how good is his hearing?} Fawkes asked.
"Good enough to hear you too, birdie," Cobra replied with a smirk.
"Yes, to me Parseltongue sounds like English," said Harry.
~I have heard of legends that spoke of humans who could speak,~ Cubellios said. ~The legends were passed down from snake to snake. They all spoke about humans like you, and how few of you are there. Many snakes dream of meeting a speaker.~
"So all snakes know about your kind?" Cobra asked Harry, hearing what Cubellios said through Harry's mental translation.
Harry shrugged, "I haven't run into many snakes, so I wouldn't know."
Cobra looked to be thinking of something, but unlike him Harry couldn't hear his thoughts, which made the Oracion Seis' member grin.
"Harry, behind you!" Harry heard Wendy's voice call out. He just noticed that there was someone standing behind him. Fawkes teleported Harry from where he was back to where Wendy is.
{I thought the fighting stopped,} Fawkes said. He and Harry saw that in front of them, everyone from their allied forces have all been taken out besides him, Wendy, and Fawkes. The person that had snuck up behind him was the leader of the Oracion Seis, Brain.
Brain was looking where Harry is, but his eyes were wide in surprise. At first, Harry thought that the man was feeling that way because of Fawkes teleporting him away, but then he heard, "Wendy…" spoken softly from him. Harry looked behind him, and saw that Wendy was poking her head out from behind the boulder along with Carla and Happy.
Harry stood more in front of the three, not liking where this could be going. Brain grinned, which worried the dark-haired wizard even more. 'What is he planning?' Harry questioned.
"The sky maiden," said Brain. Harry guessed that that might be Wendy's title. But what does Brain want with her?
{Her healing abilities most likely,} said Fawkes. {Don't forget, he tried to capture you too.}
{Yeah, but what does it mean?} Harry asked.
{He seems to be the type that likes to experiment with old magic. Both sky and parsel magic are rare and pretty much dead.}
{Is parselmagic a thing? I thought it was just a language.}
{I'm not sure, but I do know it requires magic to speak it in the first place. I think only a snake would know.}
{If they do, the knowledge is probably dead then,} Harry said with a sigh. He decided it doesn't really matter, because he has his normal wand magic and is learning to sword fight. Not only that, but it would seem that he has the powers that are gifted to him by the Hallows. He just doesn't know more than one spell at the moment.
All of a sudden, Harry is snapped out of his musing by Wendy's scream. Harry saw a black shadow that grabbed hold of her, and that there is another coming right for him. Harry didn't have time to dodge, thanks to not focusing, when the shadow made a grab for him. He was able to take a step back, but the shadow was right on top of him; however, it didn't grab him. The shadow grabbed Fawkes, who jumped in between them. Fawkes squawked loudly. As a phoenix, dark magic hurts him.
"Fawkes!" Harry shouted in shock and concern. He tried to reach out for both Wendy and Fawkes, but only Happy was able to reach them. Wendy grabbed hold of the little, blue cat, and he went with her and Fawkes toward Brain. A moment later, in thin air, the three of them disappeared.
"Wendy!" Carla called out in pure worry.
"Grab the snake speaker!" Brain ordered after seeing he didn't grab Harry, but his bird. Brain cast a storm of dark magic at everyone. Harry knew that such a spell could kill. So he quickly moved in front of his teammates.
"Scutum Mortis!" Harry called out. The shield of death formed in front of him and his allies, stopping the dark magic from killing them.
Since Harry stopped the magic from killing them, it left him wide open. Racer moved quickly toward him, but a wall of rock and stone blocked Harry and his allies from the Oracion Seis. As the dust cleared, Harry saw that it was Jura who saved him from being kidnapped…again… Next to Jura is Ichiya. After nodding his head in thanks, he looked through the gap of the rock wall; he noticed that the enemy has retreated.

Yes, Harry is a parselmouth still. Allow me to explain how. So, Harry was a baby when he got Voldemort's soul fragment, right? Well, since he was a baby, his magic wasn't fully developed. This allowed Harry's magic to adapt to the soul fragment's magic, making it his own. I thought that even with the Horcrux destroyed, Harry would still have the powers he got from it since his magic grew up with it and absorbed it. I'm sure you're all understanding where I'm getting at, right?
Voldy: I knew it. -_-
Harry: That does make sense.
Zeref: With magic adapting to unknown magic at such a young age is possible. Harry's magic would wrap around Voldemort's and evolve with it; making the magic his own.
Enj/Dark: You just summed up everything I just said. -_-
Natsu: So that's why he can speak…snake?
Harry: I guess so. Wait…So that's how I befriended the Fiendfyre.
Enj/Dark: Yup! ;) Natsu, it's your turn.
Natsu: Please review! XD
